Here's some stuff for younger kids that haven't been mentioned yet:

Matthew Cordell is awesome. "Cornbread and Poppy" are cute, "Evergreen" is fun, but check out his whole catalog. Probably my favorite active author/illustrator.

"Nobody Likes a Goblin" by Ben Hatke

"The Little Wooden Robot and the Log Princess" by Tom Gauld

"The Little Island by Margaret Wise Brown" under the pseudonym Golden MacDonald

”The Dark Tales of Lillebror Rabbit“ by Jonna Björnstjerna

"Les P'tites Poules" by Christian Jolibois

A little older, Ursula LeGuin is amazing, "A Wizard of Earthsea", "Catwings".

Site is intermittently giving me a 502, but when I can get there the main page says:

"We are experiencing massive site slowdowns and outages due to constant waves of up to 90,000 AI bots scraping the site for content. We are working hard to block them, but its hard to keep up on an industrial scale like this. They've been at it for over a month, but it has reached levels that we can't block. Please be patient--we'll figure something out!

Normally we'd expect a couple of hundred registered users online at a time using the forums, and a few thousand guests reading the news. This is what we're currently dealing with--90,000 AI scrapers, which constantly change IPs so we can't block them, and only a handful of actual people online, as nobody can access the site."

But have you heard anyone _talk_ about it? It's common knowledge that the industrial revolution was mills and steam engines and mechanization. In my experience almost no one knows about the other piece of the textile industry that drove industrialization.

It's not hidden, but I don't think it's commonly known.

This article resonates with me, even if it is sort of an ad for a school.

Has anyone had success opting their children out of a Google account/Chromebook in a public school setting?

The development of dyes was the genesis of the chemical industry, but no one really talks about that.

Fair, I mean, I still use fastmail :)

Normalization of deviance. While there may have been some pressure from corporate or whatever, my guess is that the pilot flying was the one who only got his type rating a few months ago and that he'd done this at least a few times before in another type and gotten away with it. Now in a bigger, less nimble craft, he didn't.

Or just end the lifetime tier and make people pay like fastmail did. If even the HN beloved fastmail would do it I pretty much expect it from everyone.

Obviously Dwellers.

A boiled egg with a bit of soy sauce and a banana. Preboil the eggs of you can't schedule your morning around boiling an egg.

In 1988 in _Atlanta_ my local public school finally got ceiling fans installed, thanks to the PTA fundraising. We never had AC. We had one window unit at home in my parents bedroom. It was fine.

Nitter got shut down yesterday too

If both those are true, then shouldn't we expect China to destroy them as part of first offensive?

Maybe not longer, but definitely harder.
